D88.com To Sponsor Snooker’s European Masters

World Snooker is delighted to announce that the European Masters world ranking event will be sponsored by D88.com for the first time this season.

The D88.com European Masters will run from October 1st to 7th in Lommel, Belgium.

The tournament was staged in Lommel for the first time last season and Judd Trump lifted the trophy after beating Stuart Bingham 9-7 in the final. Top stars including Mark Selby, Mark Williams, Neil Robertson, John Higgins, Mark Allen and home favourite Luca Brecel were also among the field.
